5 days tour to visit the Best of South Poland

We were incredibly fortunate to connect with Agatha. Before our trip to Krakow, she worked extensively with our family to help us achieve our primary goal: finding the town where my grandparents were from. After I shared all the information I had, Agatha successfully located the town and arranged a two-hour trip there, including a meeting with the local priest to walk through the cemetery. She was just as excited as we were when we found the gravestones of possible relatives. Beyond her dedicated research into our family heritage, Agatha showed us the beauty of Krakow. She introduced us to amazing Polish cuisine during a tour of the public market and the Jewish Quarter and provided excellent restaurant recommendations for our evenings. She spent three days with us, and our family was truly sad to say goodbye. We have traveled the world and been on many private tours, but Agatha was an exceptional guide who ranks at the very top. She is a true asset to TourByLocal and a must-book guide for anyone visiting Krakow.

This tour of southern and central Poland was exceptional. Agata the tour guide planned a customized trip for us based on our wishes and her recommendations. We experienced fascinating places with her including Old Town Krakow, the Tatro mountains and Zakopane, the Ghetto and Kazimierz, the Wawel Royal Castle, Zalipie, Lancut Castle, Auschwitz-Birkenau, and the Wieliczka Saltmines. Of special importance, with Agata's assistance, my husband was able to visit a church in Nockowa and see his great-grandfather's baptismal record. Along the way, we saw a woodcarver shop, a cheese maker, a painting demonstration, churches, synagogues, gardens, landmarks, and enjoyed incredible Polish foods. It is hard to say enough about the warmth, knowledge of Poland, and professionalism displayed by Agata every minute of our travels, despite some long days and distances! We highly recommend this tour!

We had a wonderful time in Krakow with Agata. She made our trip enjoyable, interesting, educational, fun and was flexible at all times to meet our needs. The positive experience started when we planned our itinerary with Agata and she was great at communicating our options to us and making suggestions based on our interest areas. Then when we arrived she was in constant touch with us to ensure our trip was all it could be - and it was. I am coeliac and Agata was wonderful at researching and recommending restaurants and cafes for me. That was most appreciated. We recommend her 100%. All our activities were excellent and we could not choose one thing that was the best. The mix was just right for us. Thank you Agata for making our trip such a memorable one. It was such a rich experience in many ways - all thanks to you.

Agata was with us for the 3 days we were in Krakaw and was excellent. Agata produced a 3 day tour specific to our needs with some added local additions. We did the usual touristy bits with the Salt Mine, Shindlers Factory and Auschwitz/Berkenau but Agata also included Jewish QTR and a traditional music and food sampling evening which went down well with the group. She is a perfect host and knowldge was fantastic we can not state enough how much we all enjoyed our visit, thanks to Agata

Agata was an amazing guide. Her knowledge of Poland is extensive. We all had such a great time with her. We felt we could've spent weeks with her. Agata gave us lots of options of things to do, see and experience. Were are very grateful to have met her.

If I could give Agata 10 stars, I would! She took the time to get to know us, and then tailored our experience based on our interests. She was extremely knowledgeable, and every day was an adventure! She takes care of every single detail, and makes sure that you are taken care of, even if she is not your guide at the selected venue. At the end of our stay, we were sad to say goodbye. Thank you, Agata, for making our Krakow visit a time we will cherish always! :)
